AIM: This study aims to assess the perception and satisfaction of nurses toward the electronic medical record system in a teaching hospital. METHOD: A cross-sectional study was conducted among 350 nurses in a teaching hospital via a self-administered questionnaire between May to October 2019. Descriptive analysis, independent t-test, analysis of variance, and hierarchical multiple regression were used to analyze the data using Statistical Package for Social Sciences software version 25. In addition, a The Strengthening the Reporting of Observational Studies in Epidemiology (STROBE) was used as guide in reporting the results of this study. RESULTS: Almost all the nurses (98%, n = 343) had a positive perception toward the electronic medical record system, though their perceptions significantly differ across work units, computer or laptop ownership, and daily time spent on the system (all p < .05). Nurses who had received training reported better satisfaction with the system. CONCLUSION: Among the issues highlighted by the participants that warrant attention were system development and connectivity. This study, therefore, emphasizes the involvement of nursing personnel in system development to ensure an appropriate approach for nursing care delivery.

Foodborne diseases are one of the greatest public health threats, but they can be prevented by maintaining food safety practices. Although the food safety literature has been awash with studies from various food operations, there is very limited information on food safety in the food truck business. Therefore, this study aims to assess the level of knowledge, attitude, and practices related to food safety among food truck vendors. A cross-sectional study was conducted among 396 Malaysian food truck vendors using convenience sampling. Data was collected during the Recovery Movement Control Order due to the COVID-19 pandemic through a validated self-administered questionnaire and analyzed using SPSS version 25. The findings indicated that food truck vendors generally have fair knowledge (M = 78.8, SD = 9.09), a positive attitude (M = 94.8, SD = 5.95), and good practices (M = 84.7, SD = 6.62) regarding food safety during the COVID-19 pandemic. Hierarchical regression analysis further showed that food truck vendors’ level of education and knowledge of food safety are significant predictors of their food safety practices. This study provides an initial understanding of the food safety knowledge, attitude, and practices among food truck vendors and yields important information in promoting the food safety culture.
